Update through GUI or clean install?
« on: February 25, 2011, 12:01:24 PM »
Hello good people of the Avast community :)

I just saw that Avast 6 is now official and I was wondering if I should upgrade through the Avast 5 GUI or is it better to perform an Avast 5 uninstall and a fresh install of 6.

What do you think?

You can do any of the processes.
Try direct upgrading and, if anything fails, try an installation from scratch.

I did it through the program update feature and was very pleasantly surprised with no issues whatsoever
